There are pictures of the difference if you check the page for the complete quickdraw. Just type Petzl Spirit into the search. These are the same thing but without the dogbone.

"Bent Gate, Anodized" has the yellow gate with a gun metal blue color body as in the pic above. "Straight Gate, Anodized" has the gun metal blue gate with yellow body. "Bright" ones are raw polished aluminum bodies with colored gates. But the gates are opposite the colored bodies. Bent = yellow, straight = blue. EDIT: I 4got to add that these biners are the bomb!

i got several of the bright and the anondized, but for the life of me can't remember which color is which. but i do think that the bright is aluminum with an ORANGE gate, and that the anonidized is blue-ish gray w/ an orange gate.....or it could be the other way around...hahaha...these are the bentgate biners that i'm talking about too.

Anodized is a color set. Anodized strait gate is Orange with a gray gate, where Anodized bent gate is Gray with an orange gate. Aside from my very direct conversation with the backcountry staff, I have also checked other web sites such as, http://www.trails.com/gear/outdoor-gear/carabiners/ and found it to be the same story. Backcountry is creating confusion with the fact that they have no pictures of the Bright color set, found here in the Petzl Spirit Express Quickdraw http://www.backcountry.com/outdoorgear/Petzl-Spirit-Express-Quickdraw/PTZ0065M.html, which is the raw aluminum color. Bright straight gate is aluminum with a blueish gray gate and bright bent gate is aluminum with an orange gate.

It's just the original color of the aluminum.
